DESCRIPTION:Thursday Drop-in Guided Meditation Sessions.\n5:30pm to 6:00pm.\nHeld at Rigpa Newcastle\, 2/2 Smith Street\, Charlestown.

Step by step guidance will help you build confidence in your own meditation practice and inspire you to establish a daily practice. \nDetails\n\n\nled by experienced meditators  / Rigpa instructors\nno booking required\nmultiple short sessions of meditation\nsome gentle guidance\ncushions and seats provided\nFree but donation welcome.
